I think itwill make a user abusive the report feature unless the report system can automatically determine if comment or post break the rules
Comment on [Open to workshopping] PSA for reporting best practices
Chozo@fedia.io 6 months agoThat seems like a pretty big oversight on the Lemmy development side of things. There should, at the very least, be an option to submit a report either anonymously or to have it tied to your account. A disclaimer could be included that anonymous reports cannot be responded to in case that is a concern for users.

It’s probably not so much an oversight as a natural consequence of the open nature of Lemmy. Same reason DMs on here are not technically private. Even if you implemented an anonymous report feature, instance admins could probably identify the user easily.
